Day 3209
Day 3209 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Rue Callahan is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Ewan Callahan is not currently speaking to Ned Ferris. Ewan Callahan is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
